Problem

LG struggled to understand the meaning of database tables scattered across individual business department systems, and schema updates interrupted users; the complex process of matching and linking individual customer data records ("customer data ID pinning") was difficult, and an external CDP could not handle more than about 10 simultaneous queries, causing failures that prevented LG's Intellytics Customer 360 (IC360) platform from launching.

…d simultaneously, the performance of the CDP system significantly deteriorated. More than 10 simultaneous queries were not feasible, and other problems — such as user queries failing to be queued — led to delays in important system query work. Together, these problems prevented IC360 from being successfully released. Scal…
